02. The Universe Is Dying
Just like they foretold
At the fires, speaking tales of old The boundless welkin Autumns wind from the deepest within Drawing maps in the sky This endless vastness that we can't defy A lingering radiance Languid songs in saturnine cadence In timeless eons I waited To see the grand collapse The voices from my veins Showed me the end of time Just like we foretold Everything imploded and grew cold Fragments of the past Feel the darkness grow and outlast Our hearts went nova Leave behind this frail and dim soma The aurora enthralls Periastral imminent downfall Sing me to sleep I shall return For we are unborn In timeless eons I waited To see the grand collapse The voices from my veins Showed me the end of time The universe is dying Traces of man undone The voices from the void As we merged into one 03. Under Hennes Vingslag
Ur evig sömn, där tid och rum ej fanns
Jag vaknar, bryter mig ur valvet Ur evig sömn, där tid och rum ej fanns I mitten av bergets hjärta Jag är kallad ännu en gång Att rycka bort, jordens törnar Jag klyver dalar, urberg och vyer Konstellationer i kaos "Under Hennes Vingslag Kommer vi alla att förgås Marken slukar de svaga Vedergällning, tusen år har gått Gravar kommer att tömmas Rötter kommer att slitas upp Hör hur skogen viskar sången Hennes tid äro kommen" Jag vandrar, men nuddar ingen mark Min skugga, vittrar sönder liv och bark Nordlandet sätts i kaos och ur balans Evig snösommar, köld i hennes trans Formlösa skepnader i trans Natures vedergällning, död var allt som fanns "Under Hennes Vingslag Kommer vi alla att förgås Marken slukar de svaga Vedergällning, tusen år har gått Gravar kommer att tömmas Rötter kommer att slitas upp Hör hur skogen viskar sången Hennes tid äro kommen" Må ni blunda och drömma om dimmklädda skogar, lockropens sång Då norrskenet färgade den snöklädda jorden Urberget kunde nå den brinnande solen Kaos har rivit fram, med vrede i skogen Död har rivit sår, i det ärrade Norden "Under Hennes Vingslag Kommer vi alla att förgås Marken slukar de svaga Vedergällning, tusen år har gått Gravar kommer att tömmas Rötter kommer att slitas upp Hör hur skogen viskar sången Hennes tid äro kommen" 04. Godless Serenade
We are the wounds from a bleeding earth
Over thickets, groves and glades, 'neath the valley deep The lush verdant hills have been draped in snow In the heart of wilderness, nightfall walk with me Here I depart from myself, nightfall sing for me "-We are the void" Telltales of dead winter nights My song will usher out the light Over natures colonnade Behold my godless serenade We are the coalescence of a billion stars Just like restless souls Waiting in endless rows When the world turns into cinder and ash "-I beckon thee, my formless creator I am the fire and the sea my vindicator" 05. Oceans
Waywards the ravenpath do lead
Echolalia sounds through these empty halls Left and forgotten by a time now gone Nothing left but ashen memories Creating ways to lead you astray Breaking waves 'neath these sky so grey I will bleed like the ones before me So take heed and witness the end We left our home Not in fear but in stride We won't return Until the last one is burnt We sail away across all of the seven seas Yet we drown before we take our leave We take part of a journey that cannot be Yet we are judged before we are set free These pallid faces which I once knew Have turned into a well of lost souls The scars from the past have turned the nails of time Never to return to brave gone by days All we have are scattered recollections Now stuck in an endless loop of despondency Away from the oceans of woe we foregather To rejoice in these final hours We sail away across all of the seven seas Yet we drown before we take our leave We take part of a journey that cannot be Yet we are judged before we are set free We leave this world through our incomparable deeds A nautical journey devoid of fear and greed As a spectral concord thrashing like a crest Just like the tides of life we'll never get to rest 06. Silverdimmans Återsken
Jag sfvävar längst med silverdimmans vatten
I månljus väntar där en drömgestalt En evighetens gåta Skymningportens vakt Träd in i mörkrets pakt Kom, slukas utav natten Sjönko ner i silverdimmans sjö Rofyllt skall du domna I nattsvart vatten somna För att sedan hitta hem 07. Tidh Ok Ödhe
I minne cenotaphe af root ok bladh
Bleckar jach nedh å dhet såm een gång var dimmekläddt fjell ok diupa daalar Som om hiorden drömpde i tung dwala Näär elwen rööt, bjöd siönn opp til danz Tidh ok rum stodh handt i handt i trance Beskodha denna sidzsta simfoni Et draugcrescendo lijkt nattelig magi Vakna nij moste vakna alt förgåås Soffua nij moste soffua Att faa döö, är att faa vakna "Mijn siäl är bedröffuat alt in til dödhen Hvart är mijn modher, ok minne brödher? Skepet mitt på haffuet ok på landet allena Tagie migh heer i fraan" Vakna nij moste vakna alt förgåås Soffua nij moste soffua Att faa döö, är att faa vakna" 08. Beneath Ravens And Bones
"Behold our land
Where we have walked since ages past A fortress built from soil and tree Behold our land Devoid of falsehood, only unyielding nature Convalesce within the aegis of quintessence And now my brothers! We will die again and again Together we'll repeat the circle" Unarmed and bleeding I'm forced down on my knees A stalwart gaze fixed on the gibbet tree Yet unbroken and proud I accept my fate I close my eyes and reject your blind faith Will we die alone? Beneath ravens and bones I watch the firmament rearrange ...and gods in deep slumber awake Taste the wrath of a million years Crack the shell of this celestial sphere ...and gods in deep slumber awake The torn banners of my forefathers Lies here scattered from the slaughter My corporeal form sway under the sun My life's journey has just begun Will we die alone? Beneath ravens and bones The bones The signs The stars All align 09. The Windmill
Each day darker than the one before
I stand hopeless, empty and alone The light from the great afar Nothing but smouldering human char Watching from a distance How life effaced from existence This life which could never be I drift away within my sea From the Windmill, I see it all fall apart Light the black flames Revelations of the black arts ...and thus spoke the abyss to me Light the black flames Revelations of the black arts The last sanctuary for mankind Upon this darkened hill so confined One last flicker from the fire Before the impending quagmire As men, women, children stood In apathy, burning like wood My doors are impenetrable And I feel no remorse... From the Windmill, I see it all fall apart Light the black flames Revelations of the black arts Stain the world colorless Stain the world in solitude And that which I can not see, means nothing to me Stain the world in solitude 10. What We Lost In The Mist
The peaks of our past will withstand the test of time
Magnificent aspects of nature adored With affection we peer across our untouched lands Within every man lies a deep fire burning Stories told, stories lied, that which we can not hide I let the river run it's course through my veins Wherein lies the beauty which rekindle our hearts Each step throughout wondrous seasons explored Over perpetual snow we walk with vie and servitude The mountain is our king, the wind our queen Our stories have no choice So listen to the tempest's voice A flicker on our ancestral shore and there was nothing more As the smoke recedes Unveiling our futile deeds A walk across divine collapse We wander as centuries elapse The memories we thought we had are just fragments of what used to be Fruitlessly searching along the banks for someone or something that can not be The last light dims away, as do our tale A slow descend into the waters of null The glow we had within is what we gave What we found will forever remain lost 11. The Boneless One
Quench my thirst for endless death
Liberate my skin beyond our time Aphelion, come to me My sail is torn under waves of led Neptunian abyss, siren's allure Relinquish my sight from all pride Anchor my form, reliquary of souls O Perihelion, come to me I can taste thee, I feel thine flesh Immolate me under your breath I summon thee The Boneless One Destroyer of ships Deceiver of man I invocate thee The Boneless One Devourer of stars Douser of light I am no longer bound Release my ship Without my sails, I am free I begin my journey My sight is clear Without my bones, I am free 12. To Worship
To worship the land we adore
Is to feel your soul swept ashore On woodland thrones and bones We build our homes with stones Gods known and unknown See my disheartened tears My body longs for thee At heart you are my only shining dream To worship the mountains high Is to accept your fate and die On the peaks of Nordlaniæ We sing as one aria Transcend and taste the wind Pillars of creation, I peer To die in the arms of your kin We set sail even though the end is near Archaic words and songs Pathos to my sullen soul Bury me with the last stars As they shine no more To worship is to claim your firmament To worship is to read your last sacrament On these shores my brothers have bled We weep as the last word is said Fly, take me to the sky Die, I am forever We are the weaves of this cosmic tapestry Cry, as the last star is gone |
